[SPATS No. UT–039–FOR]

Utah Regulatory Program

AGENCY: Office of Surface Mining

Reclamation and Enforcement, Interior.

ACTION: Proposed rule; public comment

period and opportunity for public

hearing on proposed amendment.

SUMMARY: The Office of Surface Mining

Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) is

announcing receipt of a proposed

amendment to the Utah regulatory

program (the ‘‘Utah program’’) under the

Surface Mining Control and

Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA).

Utah’s amendment proposes changes in

requirements for coal mine permit

application approval in section 40–10–

11 of the Utah Code Annotated (UCA)

(hereafter, also the ‘‘Utah Code’’). The

State proposes the changes to update

language used to describe the approval

process and information documented

during that process. In addition, Utah

proposes a change to subsection (f) of

UCA 40–10–11(2) to clarify limitations

on authority of the Division and to the

Board of Oil, Gas and Mining with

respect to property right disputes. Utah

also proposes to revise provisions

applicable to a permit applicant’s list of

violations of air and water protection at

subsection (3) of section 40–10–11 in

response to an amendment required by

OSM and described at 30 CFR

944.16(f)(2).

The amendment is intended to revise

the Utah program to be consistent with

the Surface Mining Control and

Reclamation Act of 1977 (SMCRA)

regulations and to improve operational

efficiency.

DATES: Written comments must be

received by 4:00 p.m., m.d.t. August 7,

1998. If requested, a public hearing on

the proposed amendment will be held

on August 2, 1998. Requests to present

oral testimony at the hearing must be

received by 4:00 p.m., m.d.t. on July 23,

1998.
